ancient cultures have a lot to teach us! thanks for sharing!

Given that buying ollas outright is ridiculously expensive, using clay pots with their lids glued on makes a good alternative as well. Some use milk jugs, but I've found the clay pots to work better IMO.

Wonderful ! The Ollas are colaborating with nature and has no plastic, which we have to avoid immediately. Thanks

Thank you so much. Very good video and beneficial for water savings. I like plant nanny ;)

Very cool

nice video

If you live in a climate that feezes in the winter, will the Olla's crack? Would you need to dig them out each fall and put them back in sping?

Yes! Be careful with this system in winter climates. When your plants start to go dormant before the freeze, its best to pull these out of the ground.

How many gallons or litres do these hold?

Can you fertilize threw these???

dont do that, although water is able to go through the low temp fired clay, some chemicals are not. If you put a lot of those in the water, they fill the pores

These containers are not ollas they are jarros. An olla is a different type of vessel.

Great but it originated in Africa.
